Canal Productions, De Niro's loan-out company, also accuses Chase Robinson of racking up exorbitant hotel and restaurant charges and using millions of De Niro's frequent flyer miles for her personal trips, reports "variety.com".According to the suit, filed on Saturday in state court in New York, Robinson was hired as an assistant to De Niro in 2008.

She left the company in April, amid growing concerns about alleged "corporate sabotage", the suit states.The company alleges that during a four-day period in January, she watched 55 episodes of "Friends".
